next-build-cache

Set up NextJS build cache for faster GitHub Actions build times

brianespinosa/next-build-cache@main

Usage

name: CI

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
  pull_request:

concurrency:
  group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.event.pull_request.number || github.ref }}
  cancel-in-progress: true

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: brianespinosa/checkout-setup-node-install@main
      - uses: brianespinosa/next-build-cache@main
      - run: yarn build

Assumptions

• We are handling install caching with other tools like node-setup or brianespinosa/checkout-setup-node-install
• We are using yarn as our package manager so we can leverage a yarn.lock file to generate part of our build cache hash
• This action runs immediately before a NextJS build command to look for a build cache (post-job actions will automatically save the build cache upon build completion)
